Description
Emotions are a complex thing,
both fear and joy to us they bring.
Guiding us to find our way,
In dark of night or light of day.

I often sit and wonder why,
and look for reasons why I cry.
and yet the tears will often fall,
no explanation there at all.

These messengers of feelings sent,
A product shown for why we vent,
through life and death and in-between,
These tears will show us where we've been.

In joy they come from happiness,
In death they give us hope.
In love they fill our hearts with peace,
and ways of which to cope.

I place them within my memories,
to open at a whim,
to remember what they mean to me,
and so they never dim.

So when the next tear falls so free,
be not in haste to wipe away.
For in that tear is why we cry,
To live again another day.

See all it holds, from where it came
and hold it in your mind.
For then a tear has been worthwhile,
Both heart and soul will find..
